How was your paper? How did you approach the paper?
Even if an reserved candidate clear all stages with general cutoff and get rank in 60s or 70s, they still opt for reserved seat rather than UR for cadre preferences. This is a conscious choice by reserved candidate for cadre.This is the reason that most of candidates in reserved list issued by UPSC after an year belong to generals. So don’t worry UR seats are not eaten up.
If a candidate from reserved category clears all stages from general category then they are automatically allotted the general seat, there is no choice available to then to choose a seat of reserved category.
um i have a serious doubt can anyone sort it?
just out of curiosity i checked last UR IAS 2020
its rank 78 with general category in service allocation pdf i retrieved from a website.
in the marks allocation the the rank 78 is OBC.
my doubt is: has the OBC candidate taken UR seat?
im confused here
ive checked some toppers of categories other than ur as well in both lists. the category mentioned has not changed in both lists. is it just an error?
I may be wrong, but I believe this is how it works.
If someone has cleared UR cutoff, they will be allocated service from UR category. However, if their 1st or subsequent preference (service or cadre) is not getting satisfied from UR and if it is available in their category, then they will get the seat from their category.
This is reason why general category candidates are more in reserved list declared later as some general seats remain unfilled due to use of category by higher ranked candidates.
It might have happened that AIR 78 would have got preference in UR itself and there was no need of category or post verification, OBC certificate would not have been eligible or even a typo.
Only service and not cadre. They can get service from unreserved category but cadre from reserved ones.
